Cole: Horford s integration into the team was very smooth. TJD is our only down-shot center

Today, Warriors coach Cole accepted an interview with reporters.

Reporter: Let's talk about Horford?

Cole: Yes. I mean, you know I mentioned a few days ago, Al, he is really a professional player. He has seen everything and understood everything, and it has been very smooth for him to integrate into the team. The rookies performed great too, this group of young people is really good, I enjoy watching them play and watching them absorb and digest everything. Let’s take a look at which new players we have? Yes, I think this team has a strong continuity, which is already reflected in training camp. So far, this training camp has been really smooth. So is Tres (TJD).

Reporter: What is the situation of TJD?

Cole:  He looks in good shape and moves very smoothly. I think the road is clearer for him now. Given our center rotation, he and Looney are a bit alternated over the past two years, sometimes one plays and the other doesn't play. Sometimes one is in the rotation and the other is not there. But for Teres, now looking at our inside line, Horford and Post are more of the kind of players who disassemble, while Teres is the only center forward in the downward form - downward form, impacting the basket, finishing, and receiving all-in-one, these are all his characteristics. So I think it's clearer for him in the roster, and that will help him very much. And he played well and was in good health, so I was excited for him.
